New analysis challenges primary energy accounting; it argues useful energy better reflects electrification efficiency and renewable progress, shaping planning choices.

New research shows how compact, no-insulation HTS magnets could bring 40T+ NMR spectroscopy to local university labs.

Helion’s technology is founded in nuclear fusion, which occurs when two atoms combine under intense heat and pressure and ...

Tesla has received regulatory approval to supply electricity to homes and businesses across Britain, paving the way for the ...

When we think of powerful magnets used in particle accelerators or for NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), we often envision bulky machines, sometimes the size of buildings. But in an extraordinary ...

Astronomers have witnessed the birth of a rapidly spinning, highly magnetized neutron star or "magnetar" for the first time. The observation of this event, triggered by the death ...

Hate your home's “boob lights”? Designers share smart ways to hide, upgrade, or replace flush-mount ceiling lights.

Strong magnets tend to be large and power-hungry, but a new design has produced a powerful magnet that fits in the palm of ...

The findings confirm a theory first proposed 16 years ago by University of California, Berkeley theoretical astrophysicist Dan Kasen. Kasen and his colleagues hypothesized that at least some ...

For more than 40 years, scientists have known that the quantum Hall effect impacts electrons in strong magnetic fields, but it turns out light also follows the fundamental phenomenon.

Oil prices are spiking again, this time because of the war unfolding in the Middle East. What would happen, however, if we could end our reliance on oil for good? People have been ...

Russia and China can black out military satellites in seconds. A Latvian startup says nuclear-waste generators using 5x less fuel could keep satellites—and lunar bases—running.
